I was looking at old topics on Steve's gear and saw that first work on All About Flo dates back in april 2004. It's been 10 years and still nothing. Meanwhile the guitar in question was retired and the place of Steve's co-main guitar (with Evo) was given to Flo III, without any reason why. I am courious what is status of this mini page and will it ever see the light of the day.

It's still pretty high on my wish list. The problem with this is that although I can tell you a lot about the current status of Flo and why the switch to Flo III and the various versions over the years, it's seems sheer impossible to find anything out about it's genesis, which is where it should get really interesting.

I've talked extensively to various people who were around during those days that it came into live, but no one really knows or remembers the reasoning behind it. There are still a few people I need to talk to though, so I keep having hope.

This page however, is typically one of those really 'nice to haves', along with stuff like the original Journals - things I really would like to bring back, but as you can see, I had to spend the last year catching up a lot for the previous years. Steve and I felt it important to get the site up2date with current info (such as the discography, guitar galleries etc) and make space for the stuff that's really dear to Steve on this site before I indulge into these somewhat secondary things.

And now that we're getting on track with that, I would like to focus my attention more to All About Flo, The Journals, additional galleries and a much better gear section.

Wait... You never specified the state of FLO now or the reason for the switch, I've been curious about that. Can you explain or do you prefer to keep it a secret?

I just think Vai beats it to shit! It has become the one Vai had used the most on tour for the last two years. Frankly I don't think Steve cares about it in terms of keeping it safe, so he probably just uses it as hard as he likes.

Everyone, listen up. The reason Steve plays FLO III more is because he likes the scalloped frets. That's the only reason. Steve dosent want to bring both evo and FLO on tour in case something happens. Short and sweet. But he did say he plays her a lot, and hen he was holding her her whammy bar went straight up. A bit different than I imagined, but you know
